Cynosure is launching the PicoSure Pro device, the latest upgrade to the company's PicoSure system.
An FDA-cleared 755nm picosecond laser, the PicoSure Pro device uniquely delivers energy in a trillionth of a second, utilizing pressure instead of heat to provide safe and effective treatments for unwanted pigmentation and skin revitalization for all skin types.
"As inventors of picosecond aesthetic laser technology, we are constantly challenging ourselves to continually drive innovation forward. Whether we're developing new devices or improving upon our trusted flagship products, we're focused on addressing the unmet needs of our practitioners to ensure the best possible outcomes for their patients and practice," says Todd Tillemans, Chief Executive Officer of Cynosure, in a news release. "From a 50% increase in energy to new handpieces and an adjustable fluence, the performance enhancements made to the PicoSure Pro device provide practitioners with more versatility than ever before, allowing them to efficiently treat more patients per day and provide better outcomes in less time."
The PicoSure Pro device's advanced Platinum Focus lens array is used to increase collagen and elastin to help combat wrinkles, acne scars and pores. With the addition of the flat lens, the PicoSure Pro device is now also the first and only picosecond laser FDA-cleared for the treatment of pigment in melasma and other hyperpigmentation issues such as nevus of Ota and Hori's nevus. Additional enhancements include a sleek, modern design, intuitive graphic user interface and new 5MM handpiece that is ideal for treating discrete lesions, lighter Fitzpatrick skin types and smaller treatment areas.
"The updates seen in the PicoSure Pro device further solidify Cynosure's stance as a trusted pioneer in the field of laser technology," says Sandi Peterson, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice Operating Partner and Chairman of the Board of Cynosure. "With the PicoSure Pro device, providers can achieve comparable treatment results to more aggressive lasers with less pain and no downtime, making it a true one-and-done device for a myriad of patient needs."
